A long time ago, I played a fun point-and-click puzzle game Machinarium. This game, having been released in 2009, is not quite “vintage”, though at the time of this writing, it’s already 11 years old! Given that there are a number of such games, I was wondering how easy it would be to run them all today, but although I last played this game on Windows, this time, I wanted to see if I could run it on Linux (it has a native port, so we wouldn’t be using Wine). Additionally, I’ve been thinking about using containers for running games to ensure they get the correct environment, without having to install all their contemporary (i.e., old and possibly insecure) dependencies on my system directly, as well as isolating them from the rest of the system. On top of that, we can check if any of these games actually need to have network access by entirely disabling it. Ready? Let’s go! Disclaimer: this post was not sponsored by any of the companies mentioned, and I did not receive any promotional copies, discounts, or encouragement to write this post. I purchased all of the games described here myself, at public retail prices at the time of purchase (game prices tend to fluctuate). List of games In this post, we’ll try to make the following two games to work: Machinarium (2009) Botanicula (2012) They have similar runtime requirements and were both written about a decade ago (hence the title of this post), so we should be able to come up with a shared solution for both of them. TL;DR: if you want to skip the trial-and-error (of which there will be plenty), you can skip straight to the following: conclusions where we’ll summarize what we’ve learned security considerations when running such old software and supporting infrastructure resources has the final configuration scripts you’ll need usage section describes how to actually install and play these games OK, with that, let’s get started! Goals & principles Although there are several places where we can buy Machinarium and many other games, including from the developers themselves, most distributions are DRM-restricted and depend on network access as well as the service being around and operational, for us to be able to play this game. To avoid the issues that come with this, we will be using games purchased from GOG (Good Old Games), a DRM-free distributor of both recent and classic games on multiple platforms (Linux, macOS, and Windows). Thus, these instructions will be somewhat specific for the GOG distributions of the specific games we’re looking into, but should be easily adjustable in the end to the same games acquired from other distributors. Since we’re going to make this work for multiple games, we’ll try to make our approach as portable and reusable as possible, without hard-coding game-specific features or names into our container images. Our goal is not to distribute these containers, but just use containerized environments for running games, so we won’t actually bake games into the container images themselves; we’ll keep the games on the system’s native filesystem and bind-mount the downloaded binaries and the installation directores in to the container on an as-needed basis. This also makes it much faster to iterate on container builds, and keeps containers portable and reusable across games, as they will have no game-specific data. Finally, we’ll try to follow good style for our containers, such as minimizing their size by installing just what’s required, and good security practices such as not running our processes as root, even inside our containers. So, to summarize: we’ll be using games purchased from GOG we’ll aim to make our approach generalized and shared as much as possible, so that we can reuse it across multiple games we won’t copy the game content (whether setup/installation files or the final installed data files) into the containers we will run our games as regular users inside containers, not root Environment FYI, here’s my setup, in case you want to replicate these results: Ubuntu 19.04 Docker version 18.09.7, build 2d0083d Linux kernel 5.0.0-38-generic Step 1: how hard can this be? The GOG pages for the games specify that they are compatible with Ubuntu 14.04 and Mint 17. I’ll be using Ubuntu 14.04 in our containers, since I’m already familiar with Ubuntu, having used it for a while across multiple versions. Also, since I’ve already played Machinarium before, let’s begin with Botanicula. We’ll start by creating a directory structure as follows: base |-- .dockerignore |-- Dockerfile |-- runner.sh |-- install/ -- source/ -- gog_botanicula_2.0.0.2.sh In the base directory, we’ll create a directory source for storing the installation file provided by GOG (in the case of Botanicula, that’s gog_botanicula_2.0.0.2.sh), and install will be the target installation directory. Make sure the downloaded shell script is executable: $ chmod u+x source/gog_botanicula_2.0.0.2.sh We’ll create a Dockerfile in the same directory, but to avoid the Docker daemon sending the transitive closure of the directory as the build context to the Docker daemon, we’ll add a .dockerignore file to ignore everything, literally: * Let’s start with a basic Dockerfile: FROM ubuntu:14.04

Create a non-root user to run games with reduced permissions.

Note: you can set any username you want here; it doesn't matter.

ENV USER=user RUN useradd -ms /bin/bash $USER

Drop root permissions; all commands from now on will be executed as a

regular user, so be sure to do anything requiring root permissions prior to

this line.

USER $USER

Declare that we will mount two directories into this container at runtime,

one for the source media and one for the installation folder.

VOLUME /opt/game/source VOLUME /opt/game/install We’ll be using a runner.sh script to simplify running our many Docker commands; it will store all of the flags and parameters, so we’ll use it as runner.sh build and runner.sh run: #!/bin/bash -u

declare -r DOCKER_IMAGE="game-image"

Build the Docker container.

build() { docker build -t "${DOCKER_IMAGE}" . }

Run the game installer.

This is where we should do some error checking and provide a useful error

message if the user provides a command other than build or install , but

for brevity, we're just running the provided command directly.

For that, we’ll need to add a new command—let’s call it install-debug—to our runner.sh script, which will start an interactive shell in the container, instead of launching the game installer directly, which we can do by adding the -it flag to the docker run command line, and changing the command to be run in the container from /opt/game/source/gog_botanicula_2.0.0.2.sh to simply /bin/bash: #!/bin/bash -u

The installer starts… but not a GUI, more of a TUI (terminal UI)! Turns out, it was failing to start because our original installation docker run command did not include the -it flag for an interactive terminal, while our debugger command does include it, which is why it worked. Step 3: interative terminals for everyone! Let’s update our install command to include the -it flag and see if that fixes our issue: # Run the game installer. install() { docker run \

"$1" Now that we’ve updated runner.sh accordingly, let’s try the automated installation again: $ ./runner.sh install Success! It starts the TUI, we accept the EULA, when it asks for the installation directory, we manually input /opt/game/install since that’s what we designated as our installation directory, and skip adding the start menu and desktop icons since we’ll be reusing the container across games, and we are keeping the game files outside of the container anyway, so it won’t make much sense without the game actually being present. Now let’s run the game! Step 4: can we play now? Since we installed the game outside of the container, we can just see what was installed directly on the filesystem, to find out the name of the game launcher command. $ ls -F install docs/ game/ gameinfo start.sh* support/ uninstall-Botanicula.sh* This shows us there’s an executable script named start.sh, so that must be it!

"$1" And let’s start the game: $ ./runner.sh play /opt/game/install/start.sh: line 18: bin/adl: No such file or directory Hmmm… this is starting to be reminiscent of when we tried to upgrade our Hugo binary and it couldn’t find the right shared libraries. I wonder what’s wrong here? Let’s see what symbols we’re missing here: $ ./runner.sh install-debug [container] $ cd /opt/game/install [container] $ cat start.sh [...] run_game() { cd game bin/adl bin/BotaniculaLinux-app.xml } [...] OK, so the actual binary we need to look at is game/bin/adl, so let’s see what it’s all about: [container] $ cd /opt/game/install/game/bin [container] $ file adl adl: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, stripped [container] $ ldd adl not a dynamic executable It’s interesting to note that file thinks it’s a dynamically-linked executable, but ldd disagrees? I wonder why that might be… wait, did it say it’s a 32-bit executable? Step 5: 32 bits should be enough for anyone Looking back at the Botanicula page on GOG, it actually says this: Requires libc6:i386 libasound2:i386 libasound2-data:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386 libgtk2.0-0:i386 libxml2:i386 libnss3:i386 and dependencies this game comes with a 32-bit binary only This might be the issue! Conveniently, they also pointed out all the packages we need, so we can just install them in our container directly: FROM ubuntu:14.04

we can skip the install step since nothing needs to change there

$ ./runner.sh play (bin/adl:21): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: Well, now we’re getting somewhere! At least we’re not getting mysterious “file not found” issues, but looks like we’ll need to forward our $DISPLAY into the container to allow the process to access it directly. Step 6: sharing is caring Looks like in Step 5, we weren’t able to open $DISPLAY from inside the container; we’ll have to share it with the container for this to work.

As an aside, at this point we can see that this “Linux” version was actually built on a Mac (see the /Users/macboookpro directory), and that this is actually a game written in Flash (since we can see flash.events and flash.desktop) and the as extension on BotaniculaLinux.as tells us this was written in ActionScript.

"$1" Now we can test out our play environment: $ ./runner.sh play-debug [container] $ /opt/game/install/start.sh And… this is where it gets interesting. In some cases I’ve tried this, this ended up working, and in some cases, it did not, but then the following set of commands (inside the container) did end up working for me: [container] $ cd /opt/game/install [container] $ ./start.sh which means the working directory matters when starting the game. Rather than trying to write a custom entrypoint Docker script with cd /opt/game/install && ./start.sh as the command, we can just specify the working directory directly in the docker run command, so let’s just do that.

"$1" At this point, the game starts, with graphics and music and everything seems to be going great! Or does it…? The intro plays well, and I played a small part of the opening sequence, and then I decided to save progress while I was testing my changes to the Dockerfile and runner.sh, but when I restarted the game and tried to load my saved progress … I found that there were no save points from which to continue! As you recall, we mount the installation directory with read-write access, specifically for these types of use cases, but it seems that it does not save the game to that location. Using our trusty debugging command: $ ./runner.sh play-debug [container] /opt/game/install $ ./start.sh When we create a save point, and then exit, we can examine our $HOME directory to see where the save game may have ended up, and in this case we see it’s right there: [container] $ ls -F ~ BotaniculaSaves/ Step 9: save and exit So far, we’ve been aiming to make our Dockerfile and runner.sh game-independent so that we could reuse it across multiple games; having the name of the game hard-coded in our save directory (which will end up as a volume in our Dockerfile) threatens to upend that, but we can just mount $HOME to handle them all transparently as well! Let’s update our Dockerfile accordingly: # one for the source media and one for the installation folder.

"$1" Since we’ve updated our Dockerfile, let’s rebuild it: $ ./runner.sh build We don’t have to reinstall the game, so let’s just play it: $ mkdir Documents $ ./runner.sh play There should be no start-up issues anymore, so let’s make some progress in the game, save our game, and exit. Then, restart the game: $ ./runner.sh play and we should have a save point to restore from! Hooray! Phew, that was a lot. Note: some sources suggest that the save directory on Linux is ~/Documents/BotaniculaSaves (rather than ~/BotaniculaSaves, which we discovered experimentally), which I originally took as given, only to find out that that was not correct, at least not for the version that I’m using. Always verify your assumptions or you will spend a bit of time debugging the wrong issues! Does it generalize? Now that we got our solution working for Botanicula, you might be wondering: will the same approach work for Machinarium as well? Let’s find out! First, let’s create the directory structure for this game as before: base |-- .dockerignore |-- Dockerfile |-- runner.sh |-- home/ |-- install/ -- source/ -- gog_machinarium_2.0.0.2.sh We’ll use the same .dockerignore file as previously and we should be able to re-use the Dockerfile as-is, since it’s entirely generic. As a bonus, since we’re not modifying the Dockerfile, we don’t have to rebuild the image! We’ll also use the same runner.sh script, we’ll just have to run it differently: $ chmod u+x source/gog_machinarium_2.0.0.2.sh $ env INSTALL_CMD=./gog_machinarium_2.0.0.2.sh ./runner.sh install As before, make sure you install into a different directory, /opt/game/install, so that it works with our customized setup. It should install with no issues, and now let’s play it: $ ./runner.sh play Running Machinarium /opt/game/install/game/Machinarium: error while loading shared libraries: libXt.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Uh-oh! What’s this? This again? Let’s find out the complete list of missing libraries so we don’t have to play whack-a-mole with them one-at-a-time: $ ./runner.sh play-debug [container] /opt/game/install $ ldd game/Machinarium | grep 'not found' libXt.so.6 => not found OK, so looks like it’s just a single library, that ought to be easy to fix. Additionally, looking at the Machinarium page on GOG, we find the full set of libraries actually includes libxt6:i386, so they’ve already thought of it! In fact, it’s nearly identical to the set of libraries they specified for Botanicula, except it adds libcurl3:i386, and libxml2:i386 is swapped out for libxt6:9386. Since we want a generic container (it would be easier and less complex to have 1 container for a bunch of 32-bit games than two almost identical ones, save for a package here or there), we might as well extend our existing container image with the two new libraryes, libcurl3:i386 and libxt6:i386: libasound2-plugins:i386

VOLUME $HOME Our runner.sh stays the same, but since we’ve updated the Dockerfile, we’ll need to rebuild our container image: $ ./runner.sh build Our installation should be fine as-is, so let’s play: $ ./runner.sh play And it works out of the box! Graphics, music, save games, all good! We’re done! Conclusions I didn’t know this before diving into these games, but it turns out that both of these games were actually written using Flash, so in both cases, we ended up using the Adobe AIR runtime. I hope this was still a useful post and you’ve learned something new about running 32-bit binaries with audio & video support in containers, or at least inspired to try playing these or other games, whether using containers or otherwise. Happy gaming! Security considerations Since we’re running old software in these containers, please be aware that the software is very much not secure; while Ubuntu 14.04 is an LTS (Long-Term Support) release, standard support for it ended in April 2019, and it will be EOL’d in April 2022. Plus, we’re using it to run Flash, which has had a number of security issues in the past. Thus, it is imperative to avoid giving these containers running old software no access to the network—this is what the containers I’m providing are doing by default (other than during the build step, which is unavoidable), so please keep it that way! Resources In case you want to follow along the entire process, here are the games we discussed, all by Amanita Design: Botanicula; we used the version purchaged via GOG Machinarium; we used the version purchased via GOG And here are all the Dockerfile and runner.sh scripts used in this post: v1 runner.sh and Dockerfile v2 runner.sh and Dockerfile v3 runner.sh and Dockerfile v4 runner.sh and Dockerfile v5 runner.sh and Dockerfile v6 runner.sh and Dockerfile v7 runner.sh and Dockerfile v8 runner.sh and Dockerfile v9 runner.sh and Dockerfile v10 runner.sh and Dockerfile However, if you just want to play the game without going throught the trouble we just went through here, just grab the latest version, as that was what finally worked for me! See the usage section below for detailed instructions. Usage Set up your directory structure as follows: base |-- .dockerignore |-- Dockerfile |-- runner.sh |-- home/ |-- install/ -- source/ |-- gog_machinarium_2.0.0.2.sh (OR) -- gog_botanicula_2.0.0.2.sh Note: put only one install file here; since we’re using the same installation directory for both of them (install), you should only install one game at-a-time there. If you want to install both games, create a separate (similar) tree for the other game. The .dockerignore file should have just a single line with just an asterisk: * Use the runner.sh and Dockerfile from the latest (v10) version above. Build the container: $ ./runner.sh build Install the game of your choice: # Install Botanicula $ env INSTALL_CMD=./gog_botanicula_2.0.0.2.sh ./runner.sh install Or: # Install Machinarium $ env INSTALL_CMD=./gog_machinarium_2.0.0.2.sh ./runner.sh install Be sure to choose a “custom installation directory” and install into /opt/game/install. And now, you can play the game: $ ./runner.sh play Have fun and let me know how it goes!
